Contributions of Task-Representation in Attentional Inhibition
Recently, a new literature on inter-trial effects in visual search has demonstrated that recent experiences produce dramatic changes in future searching behavior. This dissertation includes five experiments designed to determine the extent to which an observer's knowledge and intentions may …

Dietary and adiposity influences on relational memory and attentional inhibition
Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2023-12-01

The influence of physical activity, sedentary time, and adiposity, on behavioral and neuroelectric measures of attentional inhibition
… using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). Attentional inhibition, a component of cognitive control, was assessed using a modified Eriksen Flanker task. Neuroelectric function was assessed using event-related brain potentials. Specifically, the changes (incongruent - congruent task …

Mechanisms Behind Directed Forgetting: Exploring the Selective Rehearsal and Attentional Inhibition Accounts Using the Double-Item Method Paradigm
… the primary process of directed forgetting. The attentional inhibition account suggests that the directed forgetting effect arises from the inhibition of forget items, which allows for remember items to be further processed. The current thesis explored the extent to which both of these accounts …

The effects of low-to-moderate intensity aerobic exercise on cognition and affect
… on behavioral measures of cognition (i.e., attentional inhibition, working memory) and affective states (i.e., state anxiety, Energy, Tiredness, Tension, and Calmness). It was also of interest to determine if individual differences (i.e., trait anxiety, dispositional resilience) had any …

The negative influence of adiposity extends to intraindividual variability in cognitive control among preadolescent children
… relative to fat-free mass (VO2FF), respectively. Attentional inhibition was assessed using a modified flanker task. IIV was assessed as standard deviation (SDRT) and coefficient of variation (CVRT) of response time. Hierarchical linear regression analyses were performed to examine the …

Social Inhibition of return: Causes and properties
… conditions. In this paradigm named Social Inhibition of Return (social IOR) two individuals, sitting opposite each other take turns to respond to targets appearing on either side of a visual display. Typical results reveal that reaction times are longer when responses are directed to where …

Independent predictors of executive function: Cathepsin B and strength
… Reconstruction Task to assess relational memory. Attentional inhibition, a component of executive function, was assessed using a modified Flanker task. Neuroelectric function was assess using event-related brain potentials (ERPs). Specifically, the mean amplitude and peak latency of the P3 …
